I found a short bed 68 D100 thats a little ways away that I'm going to check out on monday. The guy said everything on it is in good shape except it has no rear glass at all. He said its not a wrap around and just a straight piece and could be cut by any glass shop. Since I can't even check it out until monday, I'm just doing my research and seeing if thats actually the case with these trucks? I've never really checked out one of these things up close but I don't want to get stuck with something thats going to cost big money or take a lot of time to find.

I LOVE those trucks... Dodge went to a flat back window with the body style change in '61. They did offer two sizes, but I believe they dropped the small window option after '67.

If you want to do some research, www.sweptline.org is a great site. Here's a pretty good list of the common rust areas:
floorboards [front cab mounts particularly]
rocker panel/step area
cowl/vent box area [inside & out]
roof line underneath rain gutter above windshield [inside & out]
bottom of bed ends [below tail lights]
bottom of tailgate
hood front lip
door bottoms [especially corners]

Wish you were a little closer, I have 3 of those windows up here near Seattle...

Thanks zorg, I actually found the site yesterday after I made this post. Looks like it'll be the big window. I'll let you know how it goes after I check it out monday.

If it's flat glass it can definitely be made by a competent glass shop. The most common way to do it is with laminated glass which they can cut and fit in the shop. Another option is to us plate glass then have it tempered. That will cost a little more and will take 3 or 4 days to complete. I've made several windows for numerous vehicles using both methods.
